Mapping Christoph Ransmayr
June 16, 2016
Over two days in June 2016 in a collaboration between the Department of Germanic Studies, Trinity College Dublin and the Literaturarchiv der Österreichischen Nationalbibliothek, we would like to explore Ransmayr’s work under the heading of Mapping with all its suggestive meanings. We want to think about the various forms of mapping that go on in his work – from cartography to anthropology to cosmology to history to the stretching of literary form itself. We want to explore his writing as an invention of place, and place as the inspiration of writing.
Ireland has been privileged to be Christoph Ransmayr’s second home, his Bühne am Meer. For this conference he will return to Dublin to read to us.
Keynote speakers are Bernhard Fetz (Vienna) and Manfred Mittermayr (Salzburg) who will lead the way into Ransmayr in the form of a duet. A collection of essays for publication is planned.
Proposals for papers in German or English (approx 250 words) should be sent to the organisers Caitríona Leahy ([email protected]) and Marcel Illetschko ([email protected]) by Tuesday, 1 December 2016.
Im Juni 2016 soll in einer Kooperation zwischen dem Department of Germanic Studies des Trinity Colleges Dublin und dem Literaturarchiv der Österreichischen Nationalbibliothek zwei Tage lang Ransmayrs Werk unter dem suggestiven und facenttenreichen Titel des Mapping erkundet werden. Wir wollen die verschiedenen Arten des Kartographierens reflektieren, die uns in seinem Werk begegnen – von der Geographie zur Anthropologie zur Kosmologie zur Historiographie zur Ausdehnung der literarischen Form selbst. Wir wollen sein Schreiben erkunden als ein Erschaffen von Raum, und den Raum als Inspiration des Schreibens.
Irland hatte das Privileg, Christoph Ransmayrs zweite Heimat zu sein, seine Bühne am Meer. Für diese Konferenz wird er auch selbst nach Dublin zurückkehren, um für uns zu lesen.
Keynote Speaker sind Bernhard Fetz (Wien) und Manfred Mittermayer (Salzburg), die in Form eines Duetts in das Werk und Reisen Ransmayrs einführen werden. Ein Sammelband der Konferenzbeiträge ist geplant.
Vorschläge für Beiträge auf Deutsch oder Englisch (etwa 250 Worte) sind bei Caitríona Leahy ([email protected]) und Marcel Illetschko ([email protected]) bis Dienstag, den 1. Dezember 2016, einzureichen.
